Can anyone recommend a high quality (gaming/general use) mousepad? More specifically: It should be small to medium in size, white, and have no logos or markings.

than anything? Look no further than quality Chinese brand James Donkey. I bought this somewhat ironically, to see what this $5 yellow and black colored mouse would be like. Surprisingly, it's not that bad, although it lacks for features. It has three DPI settings, 1000, 1600, and 2000. There's no software. You can't turn the LEDs off (although they're orange and not too bright). Might be a good gift for someone who doesn't care about features or someone who would also enjoy an ironic but actually functional mouse. Or maybe you just like yellow and black.

^ That looks awesome. I can now say I have seen a good quality white mousepad. No idea how I would ever fit that on my desk though. I suppose it's also supposed to go under your keyboard?

Yes, they go under your keyboard, but I like yuuuuuge mats now because of it.

E-Blues are cheap and crappy feeling mice in general.

When it comes to mousepads, always bet on black. They seem have the smallest change of causing sensor errors for whatever reason.

I'm using one of these in black XL (18x16) right now. Its definitely high quality. I also have a Perixx that this replaced which is quite nice. There was an even bigger extended one thats taller that I wanted, but they weren't available when I got it, and still seem to be missing off Amazon

drat dudes. I would wallpaper my room with Goliathuses before I owned one pad with pc master race poo poo on it. The new Zowie pads look great and have only the tiniest of logos, but I haven't used one since they're brand new. I also don't think you can buy them just yet, though they should be floating around soon. The whole rubber backed cloth stitched edge thing is the fuckin way to go for sure though.

Artisan mouse pads are very good and have fairly unobtrusive and tasteful logos on them, but they're too expensive to buy outside of Japan for me to be able to really recommend it. It seems like there are a lot fewer of them available from Amazon (without ridiculous shipping costs) than when I got mine.

My ratpadz was getting a little worn down after a few years and I wanted a bigger mouse pad as well. I bought a 12"x24" piece of 1/8" thick anodized aluminum. I've only had it for a couple of months but so far it's great. It's got a very consistent level of low friction and so far there's no marking or scratching on it from the mouse. I'm not sure how it'll work out long term but it seems like a pretty good deal for $25. It does collect dust under the mouse a little bit more easily than a cloth pad with deeper texture but so far wiping the metal and the bottom of the mouse off every week or so seems to be keeping things working well.

Better a "PC Gaming Race" pad than a Razer. Its a dumb name but I play FPS with a 70cm 360° so I needed something large, and after a desk change I have room for something larger than the Perixx I was using

Hey Goo, is there a reason why mice forgetting their game detection profiles or mice reverting to default on-board profiles has always and still is a problem? LGS is really nice software but it pretty much forces me to load an onboard profile from file, shut down it and all logitech processes just to make one setup stick. And I'll still have to do it again a month or a week later. Does the rom on the mouse just revert when the aa battery fully drains? It's a g700. I wish this persistent problem would just go away.

I saw the Mionix Naos 7000 on Massdrop for $47. I currently have a Naos 3200 that I really like the feel of, but the inability to designate buttons to specific games is annoying. Does the 7000 have that same issue? I'm pissed I missed all the $40 G502 deals..

i realize the g502 isn't *that* close to the g9x shape, but i feel like that model is close enough in purpose that another product wouldn't be differentiated enough. and we should all be glad for the sensor in the g502 and pray that it would take the place of any laser junk in any future g9* model i loved the g9x and would love to have that form factor back, but that sensor was terrible terrible terrible

If for some reason you really need a profile-per-game you can use other software to do that.

I've just been assigning games to the mouses functions and it's not ideal. Thanks.

So if I get myself a G502 for Christmas what are the chances that a G503 comes out early next year. Looks like the 502 has been around for a bit at this point, anything coming out soon that could be worth waiting for?

Apparently a G502 new model might already exist in some capacity but nobody is quite sure what's up with it. It's just called G502 Proteus Spectrum, and a few people have gotten them shipped to them by accident. Has RGB LED and weights about 6g less than the G502 but appears to be identical otherwise. Nobody knows what's up with it, or if it's an elaborate hoax, but there are pics and vids of it on Reddit and Overclock  It's it's real then you'd definitely want to wait for that model over the regular one. Solid guess right now is that they could announce something at CES (January 6-9th). Gwyrgyn Blood fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Dec 23, 2015 |

They're releasing an RGB 502 variant. Yes, when the sole space for light is the logo under your hand. Essential stuff

Waiting for the official RGB version could be good, I can try setting it to the same values as my keyboard so I can pretend it's the same blue not a slightly different shade of blue.

Finally got the EC1-A, and dear lord is it awful; the click actuation is terrible, the side buttons are placed weirdly, and the casing feels like really cheap plastic. I liked the length and shape of the mouse, though. I really don't like the design of the new Logitech mouse, but I guess I'll have to give it a look. And I thought the mouse actuation on my G5 was mediocre enough as it was. I might also see what the new FinalMouse looks like, before I just buy the boring Logitech mouse. ufarn fucked around with this message at 11:25 on Dec 25, 2015 |
